Two in jail accused of threatening witness

Two northeast Missouri residents are charged with attempted tampering with a victim in a felony prosecution.

The Adair County Prosecutor's Office says Tracy Miles, 43, of Kirksville, and Franklin Morrison, 63, of Brashear, are accused of going to a crime victim's home in rural Adair County last week and confronting the woman about dropping the domestic assault charge against the suspect.

The suspect is Miles' brother.

Investigators state in court documents that the victim asked Miles and Morrison to leave several times, but they would not.
